Madame Qiao sneered at Concubine Du and Qiao Kou's misery after she got their properties. She completely ignored their emotions.
Qiao Wei learned about it too and even mocked them.
In their eyes, the concubine and her daughter were just like servants for them to bully around.
The concubine and the daughter would not be able to do anything in retaliation.
Madame Qiao had no time to spare any more energy on the concubine and the daughter. She scraped again and got more than 7,000 liang in total. But that was still not enough.
They had got everything they could offer, but they had the target of 10,000 liang.
Actually, they would need at least 15,000 liang if they wanted to live well in the capital.
Officer Qiao got so annoyed that he fell sick.
The couple were really worked up but could not come up with any useful method.
They were in a terrible mood and even argued with each other a few times.
